I can't see any significant difference between xword and ACL, except that you
can't directly enter the solution code to unlock the puzzle. You can, however,
simply download and open the puzzle the next day, say that you want to continue,
and then the solution code will be there automagically.
Trying it now. It's more usable than I remember (even though it's
exactly the same. We cruciverbalists are picky :-)
